The study journal helped me a lot in 013, then I stopped making updates around trials, my motivation decreased along with that. Never stop the updates lol. It makes you commit

Its been a while since I posted anything online XD
Holidays haven't been as productive as I hoped- people calling here and there and getting pulled out of the house parents to do shopping despite all protests e.t.c. but at least I managed to get some things done.

So far:
-Reviewed majority of the chapters for Maths and Ext 1 but need a LOT more practice. I think that theory is easy for me but putting it into practise and SETTING OUT. Somehow, I make too many careless errors.
-Finished Catch 22.
-Almost finished Frankenstein (50 pages left)
-Changed my concept for my extension 2 and am in the process
-Reviewed Space and did practise questions. Personally, I don't think writing notes help that much...
-Went through part one of Motors and Generators but didn't bother with notes.

Almost nothing done for Japanese extension unfortunately, though Jap is my strongest subject.

Today:
-Went through quick revision of parametrics, polynomials and integration
-Did questions on special relativity (time dilation, length contraction)
-Read around 10 pages of Frankenstein (FAIL)
-Watched half of Ghost in the Shell (EE2)
Yet again, I was dragged to go shopping for 2 hours by parents... What a waste of time and energy.
